Spin cycle sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. Works fine for rinse/wash. Noticed that happened when washing sheets - heavy load. Any chance there's a load limiter that dis enables the spin cycle if too heavy? Happened before - unplugged dryer and plug back in and it worked. Now... on spin, the motor is running but the drum does not spin
Hello T Wright - Based on the symptoms you are describing, it sounds like more than likely the unit is sensing an out of balance load, which could be too light or to heavy of a load, and the unit will not advance to high speed spin. However, often when a unit does not spin, it is because the unit cannot properly drain and dispose of the water and detergent solution. Does the unit make a humming noise? If so, the drainage hose/pump may be clogged and needs to be cleaned. If not, the washer may possibly be experiencing an issue with the door lock assembly, faulty pump, timer or control board not communicating correctly. Because it could be a number of any one of several underlying causes, I would recommend contacting a professional to properly diagnose and repair the unit.
Testimonial: "Pump drainage was restricted by coins in the filter cup - cleaned it out and wa-la."
Your main switch needs replaced. The motor that drives the switch operates because it goes through the other cycles, so the switch must be bad.

Hi. this is a failed timer device. simply replacing the timer control module will eliminate these issues you are having.

If you can inspect the shaft that is connected to the motor for physical damages, the better. If there is no physical damages or disconnection, see if you can run the motor without the load just to test it. The motor may be bad or may be going bad.
